  • Mar 20, 2026Scoreboard for HTML5 Games Lite: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-4083 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Scoreboard for HTML5 Games Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'scoreboard' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.2. The shortcode function sfhg_shortcode() allows arbitrary HTML attributes to be added to the rendered <iframe> element, with only a small blacklist of four attribute names (same_height_as, onload, onpageshow, onclick) being blocked. While the attribute names are passed through esc_html() and values through esc_attr(), this does not prevent injection of JavaScript event handler attributes like onfocus, onmouseover, onmouseenter, etc., because these attribute names and simple JavaScript payloads contain no characters that would be modified by these escaping functions. The shortcode text is stored in post_content and is only expanded to HTML at render time, after WordPress's kses filtering has already been applied to the raw post content. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

  • Mar 20, 2026Keep Backup Daily: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-3577 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.4

    The Keep Backup Daily plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the backup title alias (`val` parameter) in the `update_kbd_bkup_alias` AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.2. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. While `sanitize_text_field()` strips HTML tags on save, it does not encode double quotes. The backup titles are output in HTML attribute contexts without `esc_attr()`. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts via attribute injection that will execute whenever another administrator views the backup list page.

  • Mar 20, 2026Contact List: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-3516 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Contact List plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the '_cl_map_iframe' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.18. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping when handling the Google Maps iframe custom field. The saveCustomFields() function in class-contact-list-custom-fields.php uses a regex to extract <iframe> tags from user input but does not validate or sanitize the iframe's attributes, allowing event handlers like 'onload' to be included. The extracted iframe HTML is stored via update_post_meta() and later rendered on the front-end in class-cl-public-card.php without any escaping or wp_kses filtering. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

  • Mar 20, 2026Injection Guard: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-3368 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Injection Guard plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via malicious query parameter names in all versions up to and including 1.2.9. This is due to insufficient input sanitization in the sanitize_ig_data() function which only sanitizes array values but not array keys, combined with missing output escaping in the ig_settings.php template where stored parameter keys are echoed directly into HTML. When a request is made to the site, the plugin captures the query string via $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'], applies esc_url_raw() (which preserves URL-encoded special characters like %22, %3E, %3C), then passes it to parse_str() which URL-decodes the string, resulting in decoded HTML/JavaScript in the array keys. These keys are stored via update_option('ig_requests_log') and later rendered without esc_html() or esc_attr() on the admin log page. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in the admin log page that execute whenever an administrator views the Injection Guard log interface.

    The Image Alt Text Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the post title in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.2. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping when dynamically generating image alt and title attributes using a DOM parser. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

  • Mar 20, 2026Autoptimize: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-2430 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Autoptimize plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the lazy-loading image processing in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.14. This is due to the use of an overly permissive regular expression in the `add_lazyload` function that replaces all occurrences of `\ssrc=` in image tags without limiting to the actual attribute. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page by crafting an image tag where the `src` URL contains a space followed by `src=`, causing the regex to break the HTML structure and promote text inside attribute values into executable HTML attributes.

    The Autoptimize plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'ao_post_preload' meta value in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.14. This is due to insufficient input sanitization in the `ao_metabox_save()` function and missing output escaping when the value is rendered into a `<link>` tag in `autoptimizeImages.php`. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page, granted the "Image optimization" or "Lazy-load images" setting is enabled in the plugin configuration.

  • Mar 19, 2026Info Cards – Add Text and Media in Card Layouts: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-4120 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Info Cards – Add Text and Media in Card Layouts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'btnUrl' parameter within the Info Cards block in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.7. This is due to insufficient input validation on URL schemes, specifically the lack of javascript: protocol filtering. The block's render.php passes all attributes as JSON to the frontend via a data-attributes HTML attribute using esc_attr(wp_json_encode()), which prevents HTML attribute injection but does not validate URL protocols within the JSON data. The client-side view.js then renders the btnUrl value directly as an href attribute on anchor elements without any protocol sanitization. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject javascript: URLs that execute arbitrary web scripts when a user clicks the rendered button link.

  • Mar 19, 2026Simple Draft List: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-4006 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Simple Draft List plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'display_name' post meta (Custom Field) in all versions up to and including 2.6.2. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the author display name when no author URL is present. The plugin accesses `$draft_data->display_name` which, because `display_name` is not a native WP_Post property, triggers WP_Post::__get() and resolves to `get_post_meta($post_id, 'display_name', true)`. When the `user_url` meta field is empty, the `$author` value is assigned to `$author_link` on line 383 without any escaping (unlike line 378 which uses `esc_html()` for the `{{author}}` tag, and line 381 which uses `esc_html()` when a URL is present). This unescaped value is then inserted into the shortcode output via `str_replace()`. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses a page containing the `[drafts]` shortcode with the `{{author+link}}` template tag.

    The Code Embed plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via custom field meta values in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.1. This is due to the plugin's sanitization function `sec_check_post_fields()` only running on the `save_post` hook, while WordPress allows custom fields to be added via the `wp_ajax_add_meta` AJAX endpoint without triggering `save_post`. The `ce_filter()` function then outputs these unsanitized meta values directly into page content without escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

    The Simple Ajax Chat plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'c' parameter in versions up to, and including, 20260217 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

  • Mar 11, 2026Gravity Forms: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-3492 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Gravity Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.28.1. This is due to a compound failure involving missing authorization on the `create_from_template` AJAX endpoint (allowing any authenticated user to create forms), insufficient input sanitization (`sanitize_text_field()` preserves single quotes), and missing output escaping when the form title is rendered in the Form Switcher dropdown (`title` attribute constructed without `esc_attr()`, and JavaScript `saferHtml` utility only escapes `&`, `<`, `>` but not quotes). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes when an Administrator searches in the Form Switcher dropdown in the Form Editor.

    Product

  • Mar 11, 2026Checkout Field Editor (Checkout Manager) for WooCommerce: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-3231 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Checkout Field Editor (Checkout Manager) for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via custom radio and checkboxgroup field values submitted through the WooCommerce Block Checkout Store API in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.7. This is due to the `prepare_single_field_data()` method in `class-thwcfd-block-order-data.php` first escaping values with `esc_html()` then immediately reversing the escaping with `html_entity_decode()` for radio and checkboxgroup field types, combined with a permissive `wp_kses()` allowlist in `get_allowed_html()` that explicitly permits the `<select>` element with the `onchange` event handler attribute. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts via the Store API checkout endpoint that execute when an administrator views the order details page.

  • Mar 11, 2026Responsive Contact Form Builder & Lead Generation: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-1454 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The Responsive Contact Form Builder & Lead Generation Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.1 via form field submissions. This is due to insufficient input sanitization in the lfb_lead_sanitize() function which omits certain field types from its sanitization whitelist, combined with an overly permissive wp_kses() filter at output time that allows onclick attributes on anchor tags. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever an administrator views the lead entries in the WordPress dashboard.

    Product
    Responsive Contact Form Builder & Lead Generation

  • Mar 11, 2026Astra: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-3534 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Astra theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `ast-page-background-meta` and `ast-content-background-meta` post meta fields in all versions up to, and including, 4.12.3. This is due to insufficient input sanitization on meta registration and missing output escaping in the `astra_get_responsive_background_obj()` function for four CSS-context sub-properties (`background-color`, `background-image`, `overlay-color`, `overlay-gradient`). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

  • Mar 11, 2026weForms: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-2707 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The weForms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the REST API entry submission endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.27. This is due to inconsistent input sanitization between the frontend AJAX handler and the REST API endpoint. When entries are submitted via the REST API (`/wp-json/weforms/v1/forms/{id}/entries/`), the `prepare_entry()` method in `class-abstract-fields.php` receives the WP_REST_Request object as `$args`, bypassing the `weforms_clean()` fallback that sanitizes `$_POST` data for frontend submissions. The base field handler only applies `trim()` to the value. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts into form entry hidden field values via the REST API that execute when an administrator views the form entries page, where data is rendered using a Vue.js `v-html` directive without escaping.

    Product

  • Mar 11, 2026WP ULike: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-2358 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The WP ULike plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `[wp_ulike_likers_box]` shortcode `template` attribute in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.1. This is due to the use of `html_entity_decode()` on shortcode attributes without subsequent output sanitization, which effectively bypasses WordPress's `wp_kses_post()` content filtering. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The post must have at least one like for the XSS to render.
